wall installation
Congratulations for purchasing a high quality video wall display
solution.

This guide will help to setup your video wall quickly and correctly in
order to fully benefit from the specially designed video wall features.
Please read the instructions carefully and consider all the steps in order
to achieve best results.

Note: there are three possibilities for IP address assignment which can be
used; Recommendation is provide static IP addresses for each monitor in
order to ease LAN communication to monitors.

daisy chain using the supplied 3.5mm jack cable. (remote in

The sensor lets you use the ambient light sensor, human sensor and also
serves as a conventional IR receiver so you can control the wall with the
remote control.
a) AUTO IP addressing without DHCP server. The monitors will assign IP
addresses within the same IP range automatically but IP address range
is undefined.
b) AUTO IP addressing with DHCP server. The DHCP server provides
certain IP address for each monitor.
c) MANUAL IP addressing. A static IP address is provided to each
monitor.

Monitor IDs and IP Addresses are provided sequentially and
automatically to each connected monitor. You have to provide the
start IP address. Confirm assigned monitors by pushing OK to
memorise settings.
Note: AUTO ID has to be performed only on first monitor of LAN Daisy
Chain. If function is not performed only first monitor can be controlled.

network
Note: When ON selected, delay time is linked with Monitor ID. It reduces
the risk of overstressing the power network.Screens will turn on sequentially
not simultaneously when this is activated.
Fan Control } switch to on and choose low fan speed as
appropriate.
Use fan control to optimise the temperature across the wall. The larger the
wall, the more thermal challenges will occur. The upper rows are usually
warmer than lower rows. This can be compensated by activating the fans in
the upper rows. Please use the internal sensors to determine whether fans
should be activated and at what speed.
The trigger points of the fans can also be adjusted to optimise fan operation.
Calibration of video wall can be performed with NEC Display
10
Wall Calibrator software kit KT-LFD-CC2.
Intensity: Best Possible Matching
White Point: 10,000K
Gamma: 2.2
Note: Supports hardware calibration of monitors for best viewing
experiences. Further information is provided in the user manual of NDWC
software kit.

Additional useful OSD Settings
This functionality drastically simplifies set up and configuration while saving
time and costs.
AUTO TILE MATRIX SETUP
Any FHD or UHD input signal can be distributed on the video wall by using
Tile Matrix function. There is a new function in Xxx4 monitors which provides
simple and fast video wall setup. The AUTO TILE MATRIX SETUP
function sets automatically the following settings in OSD: MONITOR ID,
TILE MATRIX, TILE MATRIX MEM, Input Signal, VIDEO OUT SETTING
and DISPLAY PORT TERMINIAL settings. The requirement, for that
function to operate correctly, is for LAN and video cables to be daisy
chained as illustrated below:

Additional Screen Saving and Installation Tips
Following these tips will provide a stress free installation and ensure
the correct preconditions for a long life installation.
During assembly of the video wall dont exposure the monitor to any
external force or impact the bezel frame and panel. A recommendation
is to lift the monitor out of the box and install directly without putting
the monitor on the ground. Always use the attached handles to carry
and mount the monitors. Note that the middle of the top edge is
particularly sensitive. Poking the panel with any hard objects such as
mounting brackets may instantly result in permanent panel damage.
Always leave a small gap (about 1 mm) between monitors as the
dimension of a monitor will expand at high temperatures to avoid any
pressure on the bezel frame.
Always avoid static applications, matrixes, lines and frames on the
display to prevent image retention. In order to ensure stable picture
performance please note the following suggestions:
Always turn off monitors when not in active use by using the
inbuilt scheduler or NEC LAN/RS232 control software Naviset

FRAME COMP and REVERSE SCAN
To compensate the vertical image shift visible in fast moving pictures
between adjacent monitors, FRAME COMP or REVERSE SCAN function
can be selected in OSD.
FrameComp is recommended and should deliver the best results if fast
moving content is displayed. Adjust Frame Comp in the OSD as needed
for a specific installation.
NFC: INTELLIGENT WIRELESS DATA
NFC supports any pre-con guring of the display settings or access to status
information even when the monitor is powered off using the NFC based
intelligent Wireless Data android app, pre con guration of the monitor
OSD settings can be easily performed before the displays are mounted. All
major functions can be preset by using an android device equipped with
an NFC chip.

Ensure suf cient cooling of monitors using the Fan control
functions in OSD
To avoid image retention implement OSD screen saver functions
(Gamma, Backlight, Motion)
The over frame Kit for XUN Series provides a perfect outside boarder
for any size of video wall. Please select the corresponding over frame
kit that relates to the display model.
In order to con rm a correct response from the monitor, the PING
function in the OSD can be used for testing communication by
entering the IP address of the network host.
Try to keep the plastic foil on the lower displays until the next one
up has been lifted above it (to protect it from possible scratches) but
remove the tape from the edges before placing the next one on top
(removing tape after the monitors are seated is dif cult!)
Open the monitor carton box from the base by releasing the plastic
wedges, not from the top and if returning the display to its polystyrene
packaging always use the provided soft foil cover to avoid scratches
on the glass surface of the panel during transportation. Particularly
important when used for multiple setups/breakdowns ie rental
companies.
